Special Appreciation

We want to send our appreciation Mrs. Laila Carson and share the very thoughtful note we received from her here. You donation is very much appreciated, as are your kind words.

Dear Mr. & Mrs. Burton & Extended Family,

I was so impressed with your amazing composure on what must have been a very difficult evening for you. The tournament is a great way to remember your son.

I've got two grandsons who played in the alumni game, Tyler & Adam Carson, and it was fun for me to see the many families who have been "baseball families" all the years they have played - from tee-ball to the Twins, and now Warriors.

Thank you for starting a new tradition for the Twins. Please use my donation toward next season's scholarship.

  1. I just read about Josh Burton on the American Legion website. Our game is on a rain delay, so I brought up his story and I'm glad I did. I will pray for your family. Your loss must be unbearable at times. You must have wonderful memories of a wonderful son. God bless your family and continue to give your burden and sorrows to the Lord. He will give rest. I am praying for my nephew that is playing this year. Praying that he continues to contribute to others like your son. Love, Susan Martin
